Sultan Abdu Samad building


Sultan Abdul Samad Building - Originally the offices of the Colonial Secretariat, they later served as the first administrative centre of the Malayan government. Built in 1848 by British architects, A C Norman and A B Hubback, this historical landmark is famed for its Islamic-inspired architecture. Today, it houses the Courts of Law. The 40 m high clock tower is a popular gathering-point for New Year and National Day countdown celebrations and parades.
